Every year I tend to go 2 RBs and 3 WRs or 3 RBs and 2 WRs in the first 5 rounds. Not sure if I'm just picking bad players or if that overall isn't the best strategy.

Last year I Drafted Chris Johnson, AJ Green, Larry Fitzgerald, Trent Richardson, Ryan Matthews in the first 5 rounds. I thought I had a nice team.....

CJ sucked until I traded him after week 5. I started off 1-4 cuz picks in the first half of the draft weren't producing ****.

AJ was AJ. Larry ******* sucked donkey last year to no fault of his own. Trent had an up and down season, and it seems like every year I fall for the "Ryan Matthews breakout" talk and every year he breaks a nail and is sidelined for 12 weeks.

Depending on where you pick, this year I have done mocks where I am snagging RBs in the 1st three rounds. There is such a lack at the position that I feel that it is a must. So in the two mocks I have done this, picking 2 and 5 I have gone: foster-mojo-chrisjohnson and rice-ridley-murray and have been able to snag WRs like Wayne, Nelson, Fitz etc who should put up decent numbers. I'm really excited about this realization because it means 3 players who should get you around 50pts weekly not including another 30-40 from your QB and WRs.

I think my favorite mock I've done so far is when I was selecting 11th and took Lesean McCoy at that spot and then Alfred Morris in the 2nd round. I think I'd rather have that than say a Doug Martin and Chris Johnson.

As long as there is value, this is my philosophy as well. In my recent mock I took AP, CJ and Ridley. Between the 3 of those should be good for 50 points as you mentioned.

I think there's a significant dropoff after Forte,Ridley, CJ, MJD so if they were all gone by my 3rd round pick and a WR was there, I'd probably go WR and then come back and grab a Reggie Bush, Frank Gore, Lamar Miller etc later.

In the past few years I've found if you just stock up on mid round WRs, you're usually gonna get one thats gonna turn into a #1 for your team. There's also always the guys that disappoint drastically at WR. In my latest (where I grabbed the 3 Rbs I mentioned earlier) I followed up by grabbing Colston and Jordy Nelson, both of whom should be solid Wrs.

There's really no philosophy that is right though. I basically just try to make sure I get at least one good RB in the first 2 rounds, because sometimes in mocks I do grab Calvin if I don't love the RBs there.

So I might be hoping for a lower pick in my money league.

Crazy that Alfred Morris fell to 13 but I agree I enjoy my teams much more when I pick late in the 1st in snake or if I buy 2 $40 range RBs in auction.

if percy does get the season ending surgery... do i keep torrey smith over him now? or is it worth it to hang on to percy and endure a tougher season. we keep five guys and start 7, so i'd just have to draft well if i kept harvin in that case

I forget the exact details of your league, but I'd probably go Torrey Smith. If you really believe in Percy you could always try to grab him late

Without Crabtree that Kaep/Vernon connection should light it up this year.

I still don't know what I Think exactly about Colin. He has the potential to be a top 5 fantasy Quarterback but he lost his favorite target. I don't know if he's ready to just say "ok next man up"....Either way, a guy like him, he can be 8/20 for 100 yards and still have a pretty nice fantasy day cuz of his legs.

Speaking of the 49ers....Gore a legit #2? If not who would steal carries from him?

I think he'll do fine because he can run. He lost Crabtree, but I've got the two guys projected to make most of the catches. I love doubling up when theres value on the board, so grabbing VD and Kaep was nice because they were hot in the playoffs averaging 84yds and .33 tds in that span.

Part of it is just me buying the way the 49ers play offense. Kaep averaged 1.4tds in the air and .5tds on the ground in his starts last year.

If he can produce similar numbers thats nearly 9pts a games just in tds, not even in yards. I'm not worried about him one bit, if he struggles I have a lot of faith in Freeman this year as well

Regarding Gore, I think he is, but I really like him as a flex more. But if you need to start as an RB2 I think he'd do fine

Well I know a few guys in my money league are talking about Kaep going in the first round. Just chatter right now but I don't doubt that it happens. I think most are expecting a Cam Newton type fantasy season.

Oh yeah I wouldn't grab him there, I got him in the 5th or 6th in mine.

I don't really agree with that statement. Plus I got 3 of my top 7 rated WRs in a league where you can only start 2 Rbs as opposed to 2RBs and a flex.

Chris will likely finish as a top 10 back, the other 3 should all finish top 30 in RBs, with at least one of them likely cracking the top 20.

My RBs are probably around 5 in the league right now, but my WRs are second to none. I can play them based on matchup if one doesn't show to be a starter.

Shonn Green was brought to TN for one purpose - to steal Chris Johnson's TDs. Chris Ivory is not a very good back, but he will get touches. He might be OK, but I don't really have high hopes. Ball will be a decent back. I will never have high hopes for Mathews. But your WRs are ******* awesome.

Foster might end up being fine. It's not that I'm that low on him, I just wouldn't take him over those guys.

If Foster does stay healthy/dominant (and there are legit reservations about both), he'll be a great pick. But for that to be a smarter pick he'll have to ALSO score more than the guys I have listed above him.

So I don't look at it as any huge indictment on him. Rather that I expect Spiller and Richardson to be awesome. I'd pay for them.

If you guys take a guy like Foster or McCoy how soon in a draft do you usually like to take their handicap? Nothing pisses me off more than when I take a guy like Foster and someone takes Ben Tate before I get the chance!
